Here was what my SA (Claus) sent me when I
asked him what we did special to AIX that Oracle required:

Standard 5.2 installation with 64-bit support and the basic JFS
filesystem.Graphics were included (Oracle needs X windows).Only
extra thing to install was bos.adt.libm.Oracle needs libm.a but the Base
Application Development Math Library(bos.adt.libm) is not installed by
default.-Claus
